“Ask for top floor if you don't mind climbing stairs” (swilson1999)

“Choose the attic room!” (Blorin)

“Higher floor has a great view and less street noise- although it is a pretty quiet street. Downside is all those stairs. Also, the room on the top floor has the mattress close to the floor so it may be difficult to get up from once you crash after all the sight seeing and stairs. If you have bad knees or feet maybe get a more traditional bed on a lower floor.” (Jen2279)

“Our second floor (third floor in the States) room had great views.” (Daver6236)

We spent one week at Eelhouse B & B in February. We really enjoyed the location on a quiet street in Jordaan, yet were close to restaurants, shops, bars and many different weekly markets. I especially enjoyed the view from our room in the morning, surrounded by gorgeous houses and watching the locals bike around the neighbourhood.

Stayed at the Eelhouse in last November, together with my girlfriend. It was a great experience, the B&B is located in 'de Jordaan' a nice neighberhood close to central station and all the touristic things of Amsterdam, but it has the vibe of real Amsterdam.
Great restaurants and bars closeby and the owners can give you great recommendations.

Friends recommended The Jordaan as the area to stay for our recent visit to Amsterdam. We found The Eelhouse on the internet and booked a stay for 4 nights. Both were inspired choices. The Eelhouse is a typical Amsterdam house with the benefit of a position on the corner of a quiet residential street. The corner position along with the...

My friend and I, two females in our mid-twenties, stayed at the Eelhouse for three days in January. We were VERY excited to stay at the Eelhouse after reading the house's history on the website, and all the reviews here on trip advisor. We were not disappointed.
We walked from Amsterdam Centraal, very manageable even with our luggage. The Jordaan...

My friend and I stayed at the Eelhouse for two nights this summer. From the very start we had a fantastic experience!
From the start Vera & Jasper were the most excellent hosts. Jasper helped with our luggage up the narrow windy staircase to our lovely 'queen' room with a view. Jasper showed us a map of Amsterdam and pointed...

We stayed at this b&b for 3 nights, it was perfectly placed in the Jordaan area of the city, easy walking distance from most of the main attractions and centraal station. The proprietors were friendly and keen to help us explore the city with directions and information, the continental breakfast was delivered to our room each morning at the time...

We spent 3 nights in November in the Eelhouse B&B and would highly recommend it to everyone! Excellent location in Amsterdam in the Jordaan area and has pubs, good restaurants, boutique shops and supermarkets all within walking distance. It's in a lovely quiet residential area, so a quiet night and therefore a good sleep is on the cards! It's also...

We had the pleasure of staying at the Eelhouse for three nights in late October 2014 and very much enjoyed our stay. We found the Eelhouse to be close to everything, yet in a quiet location. We stayed on the 2nd floor, in a room with a plenty of sunlight, and had a spectacular view of the neighborhood. The room...

So perfectly located with a great view, amazing owners and the breakfast was delicious. The rooms are the good-kind of cozy (and up a high stairwell - so not for the mobility-challenged) - quaint, have everything you need. We can't wait to come back and stay longer.
